[outages] Verizon west coast outage?

[Jeremy Chadwick]

I'll be very interested to know what the root cause of this was.

All the discussion indicates there is a single point of failure
somewhere within Verizon's network out east; route propagation and
reconvergence should have mitigated things, so the question is why it
didn't.
